Thanks, LuvLoogle. Great ideas.

There are many recipes for squash flowers but that's one of the easiest.

Just make sure you collect the male flowers and leave the female flowers alone to turn into zucchini.

You can help the females along by taking a small paint brush and passing the polen from the male flowers to the female flowers before harvesting them.

Thanks, Xipe Totec.

My fiancee learned about this delicious treat from her Italian friends. I wonder if you could stuff them with crabmeat.

Thank you!

and lightly fry them...yummmm

We've had them floured and lightly fried but tempura sounds awesome! Thanks, WhiteTara.

is really nice. Enjoy!

You see them in restaurants here battered and deep fried, stuffed or plain. You can also chop them and stir fry them or steam them as a side or put them into a pasta sauce. You can stuff them and bake them. They have a light, vaguely sweet vegetable flavor.

It's a good idea to harvest them when the plants really start to produce. Eating the blossoms means you won't be inundated with 3 million zucchinis in mid August when everybody's gotten sick of them.

Thanks, Warpy!

YUMMMMMMMMMMMMM

Yummmmmmmmm!

There were spices too.
